NEIGHBORHOOD INITIATIVE

The vision of the Charlotte Coalition for Social Justice is of an inclusive community where there is access, equity and justice for people. To this end we are providing support to build a diverse network of residents from low-income neighborhoods seeking to address issues of race relations and social justice in and for their communities. The neighborhood initiative brings people together across lines of race and culture and builds understanding and respect through regular monthly dialogues and activities. It provides leadership training to address issues of interracial trust and cooperation in the neighborhoods and to build a common agenda for social change.
